AfULFQRD’S old stand. nor 22 »t. Saturday Evening. From Atlanta.— We had an interview (says the Memphis Appeal of the 25th) with a gentle man yesterday evening, who left At'anta on Sat urday last. He reports that the) rear guard of | Sherman’s army left there on Wednesday week, j leaving someone hundred of their sick and wounded in the place. Before leaving, they burn- j ed all the railroad and other public buildings, in cluding the hotels, banking and business houses. The masonic hall, churches, dwellings and college buildings were left undisturbed. The State road is reported destroyed as far North as Chickamau ga- Large numbers of people from the country were going into Atlanta and hauiing off such articles of , value as were not destroyed by the Yankees, in cluding salt, iroD, trace chains, shovels, spades, picks, etc., etc. Some of the old citizens who were supplied with provisions,. auJ who refused to leave their homes under Sherman s order, arc still living in the city. We learn moreover that it is the purpese of the company to go to work immediately and repair the West-Point railroad, which it is thought can be completed in one month’s time. The Etowah Iron Works will also be re-established at once. Atlanta Destroyed. —There remains now no doubt (says the Macon Bulletin) that the Gate City is nearly all destroyed. We have just conversed with an intelligent captain con nected with our cavalry, who reports that fifteen of Wheeler’s cavalry stayed in Atlanta last Friday night, and they state positively that Atlanta, Decatur and Stone Mountain are destroyed, and that there are no Yankees in that conntry. He also states that he learn ed there are no Yankees south of Decatur. God grant that Sherman may be over thrown in his great movement in the coast, and thus Georgia be entirely free from the ini vader. Cheering Sign. —Northern papers report (says the Memphis Appeal) that in Nashville Lincoln received but 2,000 votes, and McClellan 27. This is only about one-third the old voting strength of the city, and it is undoubtedly made up mostly of importations since the city fell, and es the hang ers on of tho Federal armies, whe have concentra ted there in large numbers. We want no better evidence that the great mass of the old citizens remain true to the cause of the South, and have indignantly refused to swallow Andy Johnson’s test oath. We have learned since our last issue of yesterday (says the Macon Bulletin of the 24th) that the bat tle of Griswoldvillo was not such a serious disaster to our arms as was at first supposed. Our loss was heavy ; but it is believed the enemy’s loss was much heavier, and that our forces hold the battle field und are rapidly pursuing the retreating foe.— Our n\en report that the ground i3 covered with Yankee guns, and overcoats, ammunition, &c., all indicating disaster aud a rapid flight. We copy the following items from the Macon Telegraph j’ Confederate of the 25th : The Situation. —At last accounts the ene my had moved from Clinton, as well as from their position on the Milledgeviile road. Their columns were tending in a southerly direc tion, and the prevailing impression is that they are proceeding directly to Savannah, where, we learn, ample preparations are be ing completed for their reception. Sherman’s situation is daily growing more precarious, and we may confidently hope for his complete overthrow and destruction. The Central ltoad is said to be entirely de stroyed between Griswoldvdle and Mclntyre. The City. —The city has been unusually quiet for the past two or three days, owing to the fact that business is generally suspended, the families of most of our citizens having removed to greater places of security. The excitement occasioned by the proxim ity of the Yankees to the city has subsided, and we expect soon to see our business hous es open and to hear the stentorian voices of auctioneers crying off their goods. The Sou thern Express Company has resumed business and are receiving freight and money from all points except Augusta and Savannah and places eastward. The Theatre seems irre pressible, as it ha3 missed bnt one perform ance during the late excitement. Gen. Beauregard. —We are happy to note the arrival of this distinguished military chieftain in our city. His presence among us will invigorate our troops and inspire our people with confidence; Rumors still come to us that Hood has de | seated Thomas, capturing a large number of | prisoners and many pieces of artillery. They lack, however, official confirmation. The Governor’s Headqurters. —Governor | Brown’s Headquarters are at the City Hall. His Adjutant General’s office is also in the ! same building. I The Militia.—Hereafter there will be no j more jeers at the militia. Their gallant con • ; duct in the battle of Griswoldville has elicited : the respect and admiration of all. We take the following items from the Ma con Bulletin of the 24th : j No Enemy at Clinton.— Our pickets occupy j Clinton this morning, and report no enemy at ! that place. They are said to occupy Gordon, j and Mclntyre, on the Central Railroad. They | are also reported at Miiledgeville. e have reason to believe that when Sher man reaches Savannah he will find many gal- I lant defenders there—men he least expects to ! see. Our cavalry, under Wheeler and Iverson, are doing good service in front and flank of the enemy, fighting, destroying forage and threatening their trains. It is said that General Sherman is a first rate Whist player. If he does not have to stop and take a game of Bragg , it will aston ish us. The battle-ground of Tuesday’s fight has been recovered, and our dead got possession of. Some of our dead it is feared perished with cold during the night, as they were not very severely wounded. The Yankees were afraid to advance beyond the rail breastworks they had thrown up. Sherman's reign in Georgia —the rain that may cause him to stick to the soil longer than ! he desires. ✓ Favorable grounds, it is supposed, exist for checking the advance of Sherman towards Savannah—grounds soft and moist. It is no more than justice on the part of our citizens to manifest a warm hospitality to wards our soldier defenders during these cold night*. (FIVE DOLL4RS \ PER NOITH.

Report of a Prisoner. —A Yankee prisoner captured at Clinton last right, reports that Sherman has with him four corps, amounting to at least fifty thousand infantry besides cav alry. He thinks it was Sherman’s intention to capture Macon. He further states that no private property has been destroyed except, by accident, that no negroes have been stolen, no corn cribs burned, and nothing taken ex cept such as was necessary for subsistence.— That the army has been on quarter rations, except where they could take supplies on the route. He says that there are about 1,400 wagons to each corps, and that the stock is very poor, and that they have taken better stock where it could be found, and used it in place of their own. All kinds of machinery, mills, &c., have been destroyed on the route. The prisoner was intelligent, and answered all questions propounded promptly. However, this statement may be taken with some degree of allowance, as they burned everything in Griswoldville, except the residence of Mr. Griswold.— Macon Bulletin. j .Though the Yankees laid the most i part ot this city m ashes, before their evacuation of j the Place, there is still a portion of it standing I TUc first and 3econd Baptist church, the Trinity, | (Methodist) and the Catholic "church were not i burned. The Presbyterian church was burnt to I the ground. We learn that many citizens of Atlanta, now res ! idents of this place, contemplate going at an earfy day to Atlanta and commence re building their ! homes. This is as it should be. Let them show the foe that though they may succeed in burning empty houses, robbing defenceless women and children they cannot conquer the spirit of the peo.de, nor curb their enterprise. ! , We have no doubt but that the Government will iend this portion of our citizens all the aid in its power towards forwarding so commendable an un dertaking. With the M. kW. R. R. free from the 1 foe, and a proper amount of energy displayed, we see no reason why Atlanta should not be soon again 1 I known as the emporium of the Empire State. We learn that our friends of the Intelligencer ; contemplate isuing again their able journal -from 1 their old home. Let a free press once again be es- ! tablished in the Gate city and the people will soon : gather around it, and if possible make it a more ! prosperous place than before. We bid them God speed! and sincerely trust that Atlanta may soon, Phcemx-like, rise from her ashes j [ Macon Bulletin, 24t£. ’ j Reported Fighting in the North.—The Mo bile Register takes the following extract from a letter dated Granada, Miss., Nov. 14th, fr*tn a gentleman of intelligence and position to his ! friend in Mebile : “I learn from passengers down from the lines this evening that they are fighting all over the North—that they have been fighting in Chicago for three days.

BROWN, Governor of Georgia, While our noblo armies ara doing everything in their power to defend our homes and property, aud are entitled to tho lasting gratitude and active support of the people of this State, and of the whole Confederacy, and while tho militia have left I their homes unprotected and hav-o taken up arms i and acted with tho gallantry of roteraus upon al most evory battle field from Powder Springs to Griswoldsvil'e—it is a matter of extreme mortifi-. cation to know that a largo part of our cavalry force, which should hang around and constantly annoy the enemy as ho passes through our State, and cut off his foraging parties and impede his march have left their commands, and arc now scattered in squads and in small bands over nearly half the territory of tho State, robbing and plun dering the citizens indiscriminately, and taking from tho wives aud children of soldiers who are in service discharging their whole duty, the supplies of provisions which arc their only rneaus of sup port. These predatory bands of thieves and robbers, who devastate the country under pretext of making impressments of property for the uso of tho army, aro a disgrace to tho commands to which they profess to belong, and I am sure their conduct meets the unqualified coudemnation aud scorn of every tme soldier in tho army. All other means for the suppression of this in discriminate robbery having failed, the people are obliged, as far as they have the ability, to depend upon their natural rights of self-protection by tho usa of force. I, therefore, hereby eall upon the J ustices of the Inferior Courts, Clerks, Sheriff* and all other per sons remaining at home not subject to my last call to ©rganize and arm thomsolves a* best they can, and whenever a band of these plunderers* Cnters the county and takes the property of any citizen by force, to pursue them immediately and shoot them down whonerer they find them,® and to report the facts, if the force is more than they can manage, to Lieutenant General Tayler at Macon, who will, while ho remains in Georgia, uphold and sustain them by force. lam authorized by General Taylor to say th at he will give the citizens all the aid in his power, to slay them when and wherever they are found committing the outrages above mentioned, and in plain cases, where proof of the robbery is satis factory and tho parties can be identified he will order them shot as soon as they can be apprehend ed and tho facts established. For this protection, the whole peoplo of the State will owe General Taylor a lasting debt of gratitude. Ne officer or band of men is authorized to make | any impressment of private property without the exhibition of competent authority from “the War Department. Till further notieo no impressments will be legal unless the party making them exhib its an order from Major Norman W. Smith, Major Gen. Howell Cobb, or in special cases, from Major General Wheeler, over his own signature, specifying the necessity and the particular prop erty to be taken, or an order from some General of higher rank than any aboro mentioned ; and then only when there is a strict compliance with the laws of Congress regulating impressments. All who attempt to impress without an orde’ - over the genuine signature of one of the >fficers above mentioned, are robbers, and will be shot down by any one able to do it. .
